Philipp Veit's "Die Städelsche Administration vor Lessings Hussitenpredigt" is a satirical caricature depicting the administration of the Städel Museum in Frankfurt, Germany. The artwork shows five figures, with one in the center looking overwhelmed as the others appear to be making exaggerated gestures. The figure on the right is portrayed as a larger-than-life, seemingly animated by the drama taking place within the scene, possibly a reference to Lessing's dramatic work "Nathan the Wise". Veit's satirical work sheds light on the cultural dynamics of the time and provides a humorous commentary on the Städel Museum's administration.
